obama has unfortunately continued much of his predecessor's. excesses and recklessness and some plays he's changed it so for example in the first four years we saw a focus on drones and special operations forces and utilizing allied forces as opposed to straight up invasions you know like his predecessor did with iraq the one exception to that is the afghan surge. and that has had been an utter a bold failure has failed on every observable metric so i don't think we're going to see much more that in the second term i think obama himself considered that a mistake but we will see a continuation of. you know a foreign policy of extreme interventionism getting involved in every corner of the planet regardless of the consequences it's just won't be the ground in beijing forces it'll be more or propping up dictatorships and bombing the countries now at home we've seen significant pushback from congress and with republicans maintaining a majority in the house of representatives how tough will it be for barack obama to push any of his policies forward
